Sly Johnson presents: NA LINGI YO

The legend from Saian Supa Crew is back with this banger

Sly Johnson delivers a smooth, heartfelt soul groove with Afro roots. New single & music video "NA LINGI YO"

With Na Lingi Yo, Sly Johnson marks his return by paying tribute to his father, a great music enthusiast. Inspired by an old record that used to spin on the family turntable, he delivers a warm track where roots, emotion, and rhythm blend seamlessly.

“Na Lingi Yo” means “I love you” in Lingala — a way for Sly to reconnect with his language and his heritage. A nod to his Saïan Supa Crew years also appears in a rap verse, reminding us that his journey began with hip-hop.

A sincere, radiant song driven by catchy hooks and rich African influences.
